Actually he was all done growing and was going downhill.
I only saw him for a moment, looking straight at me. When I chambered a round and looked up he was running away and I only saw him from the rear. Never saw him broadside and only had a split second to decide.
When I walked up on him I was shocked to see he was only a forky. I call him my "cheater point buck".
I've never got into scoring animals until I took a tule elk and everybody wanted to know what it scored.
I shot him about 12 years ago and never scored him until now.
I was just curious is all.
130 7/8

Not a bad guess.
130 7/8 is net
Gross is 135 4/8
 
glass,

Should be a good lesson to be sure and get a good look? I have shot stuff on a bad look and been very disappointed. If I was in Mexico and shot that buck I would be heaving my breakfast. Some like him though and he is interesting. I have some forky sheds that would be around 30 wide and 6 1/2 inch bases. Pretty interesting.

I felt just like you described when I stood over him.
But he soon grew on me and I have no regrets. There were 7 of us, one guy never even saw a deer. The other 5 all shot nice 3x3's and 4x4's but mine was the most impressive. There were 2 MONSTERS seen by others. One slipped away and the other was seen by the guide. The guide told me that a monster buck was only about 40 yards away and he told the hunter to shoot it, the hunter never saw the buck and mistakenly shot a small 3x3 that was over 100 yards away. The guide never told the hunter that he screwed up and I never told him either.
 
If you are happy that is what matters. I am probably thinking Mexico and monster bucks. Thinking what I would want versus what I would get is often two different stories. He is kind of neat regardless and not putting him down in any way.
 
SORRY glass_eye!!!

I THOUGHT IT MIGHT OF BEEN A SONORA YOUNG BUCK???

YES THEM MEXICAN BUCKS ARE BIG BODIED AT 2-3 YEARS OLD!!!

WERE ALL THE BUCKS YOU GUYS GOT REGRESSED???

A FEW YEARS AGO I DAMN NEAR TOOK A BIG 2 X 2 IN THE WORST HOLE YOU'VE EVER SEEN!!!

JUST BEFORE SQUEEZING OFF HE TURNED HIS HEAD,THE TRIGGER WAS HALF BACK,SOMEHOW I LET THE TRIGGER BACK FORWARD!!!

ALL I COULD THINK ABOUT AFTER IT HAPPENED WAS HOW BAD MY BROTHER WOULD OF CUSSED ME FOR CALLING HIM & HAVING HIM HELP ME PACK A 28" PISSCUTTER WITH ONLY 2 POINTS ON EACH SIDE OUT OF SOME OF THE MEANEST SSHIT GOD EVER MADE!!!

DON'T KNOW IF HE GOT BIGGER OR LITTLER AFTER THAT???

BUT UNTIL HE'S BIGGER HE'S STAYING RIGHT WHERE HE'S AT!!!

DAMN THAT WAS CLOSE!!!

WAS MEXICO,RIGHT???

Sounds like you got them mexican deer all figured out, and in reality I shot a 2 year old deer.
I guess them 2 year old mexican deer get big heavy roman nose heads on them too, and their teeth wear out real fast.
 
NOT WHAT I MEANT glass_eye!!!

I'VE SEEN QUITE A FEW PICS OF SONORA BUCKS!!!

EVEN SOME OF THE PISSCUTTER RACKS HAD FAIRLY GOOD SIZED BODIES ON THEM!!!

IT USE TO BE THAT WAY HERE!!!

BUT AFTER 37 YEARS OF PISS POOR MANAGEMENT IT'S RARE TO SEE A BUCK THAT LIVED LONG ENOUGH TO REGRESS!!!

AND TALK ABOUT DINK SIZED BODIES NOW DAYS!!!

WAFJ!!!

Sorry, bobcat.
Sometimes it's hard to tell if someone is serious or being a smart@ss.
The first couple of lines seemed genuine but the last line about "were all the deer regressed" made me think you were being a smart@ss.
My bad. Typed words don't have a tone and can be misinterpeted.
